Making Every Sign Positive – or – Being Optimistic (Part I)

I met a former CCNY classmate on the subway, in September. I just couldn’t make out who he was. Him and I had taken a trip together as student delegates to an AIAS convention way back. I knew I knew him. I tried hard to jog my memory, by reading “over his shoulder”. I’m real glad he looked up. That’s when I fully recognized him. He told me he’s licensed now. I checked online, he got licensed in August! On the train, I thought he said, “Four months ago.” I must have misheard, “A month ago!” I am always impressed to hear a CCNY alumnus has achieved becoming a Registered Architect.

I chose to take meeting up with him as a clear sign. The universe wants me to be licensed. From what I know, most of the CCNY alumni, that graduated around my time, have not pursued licensure. Anytime I meet anyone from CCNY (or otherwise) pursuing or having achieved a license, I’m thrilled. I always take it as a hopeful example that a positive outcome of this exam is very much possible! It’s all a part of staying positive!
